Our Barefoot BOYS.

Mr.. Matthew Arnold was greatly
struck, says The Boston Herald. by tho
democratic government of our read
ing-rooms. when in Boston. He enter.
ed reading-room one day, and saw o
small. barefooted ncws-boy ting in
one of the best chairs. enjoying him
self to the utmost. The great essaysi
was amazed. and asked, "Do you let
barefooted boys in this reading-room!
You would never see such n sight as
that in Europe. do not believe there
is reading-room in all Europe. in
which that boy, dressed as he is, could
enter"
Then Mr.. Arnold went over TO tho
boy. engaged him in conversation, and
found that he was reading the Life Of
Washington, and that he was n young
gentleman of decidedly anti-British
tendencies. and. for his age, rcmarka-
bly, we'll informed.
Mr.. Arnold remained talking with
the youngslcr for some time, and. as he
came away he said; Il do not think

else that have seen, since arriving in
this country, As am now, with meet

What tribute to democratic insti'
tutions it is, 10 say that, instead o.
sending that boy out to wander alone in
the streets, they permit him to come il
here, and excite his youthful imagina'
ton by reading such books as tho Life
of Washington!
..The reading of that one book NAY
change the whole course of that boy''
life, and may be the means of making
him n useful, honorable, worthy citi

A Telling Shot.

Probably never before in any part of
the country where game SO little
abounds has there been shot fired
with the same effect, under similar cir
cumstances. as the ono which Andy
Dixon, of Glascock county, n,ade few
days ago. Dixon killed four squirrels
at one shot and wounded fifte. The
SOU rrels were out on the limbs of q
tree, and not in u nest or hollow. A
negro namsd Warren Davis a day or
two ago killed four squirrels at ono
shot. Three of them were young ones,
and they were trying to take hickory
nut from the mouth of mn old "frisky
tail" In these DAYS when hunter
kills even one squirrel at shot it is

How the Japanese Restore
Faded Flowers.

After a bouquet is dropping beyond
all remedies of fresh water, the Jap

most destructive operation. A recent
visitor to Japan says:-"I had receiv.
ed some days ago n delightful bundle
of flowers from a japanese acquaint.

their beauty for nearly two weeks,
when ut last they faded. just as was
about to have them thrown away tho

faded flowers, and told him that though
lasting a long time, they had now be-.

and they will be rs good rs before l

have continued so for another week.
what may be the true agent in this re-
viving process am unable to deter

to the latter cause, as the full effect

The Home That Is Happiest

Our burdens are lightened
That many hands bear,
And pleasures are frightened
That many hearts share,
Aud that that is happiest,
Brightest and best,
Is where they all labor,
And where they all rest.
Where no CarcwOrn father
The brunt of work bears,
Aud no gray haired mother
Is burdencd with cares;
Where no tired elder sister
Is helper alone,
But each one is busy
Till all work is done.
Then mother has leisure
To laugh with her girls;
She shares all their secrets,
They smooth her soft curlS
And deck her with blossoms,
Aud fondIy declare
There never was mother
So winsome and fair.
And father is jolly;
His stories and fun
Are the life Of the household.
He has not son
Who does not think father
Knows best and is best,
And would not work double
That lie might take rest.
So, helping each other
In labor or play,
In happiness ever
The years pass away.
For pleasures are brightest
That many hearts share,
And burdens are lightest
That many hands bear.
